by being yourself? and failing…
1. eat first, don’t wait for her
he asked me out for dinner and we agreed to meet at some place. i arrived at that place and as i approached his table, i noticed he had already started eating. puzzled, i asked, “er, you were hungry already?” but he answered no. i felt like he was obviously trying to avoid buying me a meal. ;P
i’ll pay for my own, for goodness sake. but it was actually the first time i was meeting him after we were introduced at a friend’s party. it was awkward, because even among friends we’d wait for everyone to arrive to order and start eating together – unless some people are going to be really late.
and that was only mcdonald’s!
2. telling her straight that she’s paying for her own dinner
i was jobless for a while and had to live on my savings. eating out was tough. š he asked me to have dinner with him another time and i asked him where would he like to go. he suggested trying some place new. i asked if the place (which i suggested) was within his budget (because whenever he called to invite me out for dinner, the first place he’d suggest would be, “mamak”.)
he responded to my question, “up to you!! you’re the poor person, not me. i don’t have to worry about a budget!”
…………… can you guess how i felt?
gosh, he was tactless. obviously he didn’t want to buy me dinner, right? i was so offended that i said, “i told YOU i wanted to go to the MAMAK, and obviously we SHOULD have gone there, cos it’d be within MY budget.”
stingy fella la he.
3. ordering her something else instead of what she specifically asked for
he offered to order my food for me. let’s say, the place serves caesar salad and oriental salad. i told him i wanted the caesar salad. but an oriental salad came instead. hmmm, i thought to myself, maybe he didn’t hear me.
so what’s the difference with between this and the caesar salad? he asked.
!!!!!
so he DID hear me. what was up with him? if they had ran out of caesar salad, at least have the courtesy to let me know that’s why you ordered the oriental salad for me instead la.
i figured maybe because he was going to pay for me, he ordered the cheaper one instead.
to save RM2.
boo! wat a stingy guy! thumb down on him!
ROFLMAO
this post really made me laugh.
XD
si beh kiam siap š
*cringe* hehe poor bimbobum!! have u had your fair share of mr nice guys? seems to me, you’ve met quite a few stingebags in a row!! Q_Q
wuah…this guy reli teruk. I’ll just kick him if I do see him. Once there’s this guy, X, he bought some flowers for my friend for V’day… and guess wat? he asked money back from her. Poor thing. Terrible creatures menyesakkan dunia.
obeliskdee: hua… might as well she buy her own. i have an ex bf who was happy when i returned a soft toy he gave me, he said “thanks for returning it. now you don’t owe me anything! i’ll give this to my sister ….”
stingy bastard!

obeliskdee: waaaaaahhhhhhhh….. give him back the flowers la! or throw into the dustbin.
chaliz: my friends and i figured that’s the reason why he has never had a girlfriend before. OR has difficulties in getting one. hehe.

wolfx: aikssssss…….. where where???? ;P who’s the only who’ll only buy me …. roti kosong satu or teh ais, i forgot. u, rite? ;pPpP
